I currently have an old Cisco Catalyst 2960. I'm limited by the 100Mbps speed and it's starting to really bothering me. I was thinking of maybe switching to a Mikrotik CRS112-8P-4S-IN but i'd like to you know what you folks are using.

Well, the GS105Ev2 and GS108PEv3 have been good for me 24/7 for years.

They support VLANs, QoS & IGMP, which is most of what anyone needs at home.

But make sure you update the firmware, I recall the older (shipped) firmware had some issues (security and functionality)
